We went to the mall to see Santa. Both boys went to Santa no problem. The only problem was when it came time to leave and the "elf" woman informed me that I HAD to purchase pictures. She said I should have told her not to take the pictures if I didn't want them. WHAT? She was taking the pictures with a digital camera, so I'm pretty sure it doesn't matter if I buy them or not, but whatever. Spencer forked out a ridiculous amount for the pictures, and I'm pretty sure it was to avoid an embarrassing conflict between me and Elfie.
When Grammy and Gramps came into town we went to the River of Lights at the Botanical Gardens. It was actually pretty impressive and we had a good time braving the cold and checking out the lights.
Earlier in the week we went to a Gingerbread House party with some of our friends from the baby-sitting co-op. Ryan was very diligent and serious in putting the candy on his house and I don't think he even had a piece of candy while we were there. Andrew on the other hand was pigging out, and if you know Andrew and how he drools, he came home quite the mess.
This picture was taken right before I told Ryan we had to throw the house away. He was actually ok with the idea, because royal icing isn't that good and the candy was getting pretty hard!
